API access to a BSS system or enterprise software opens numerous integration opportunities. However, calling multiple APIs in series poses challenges if one fails. LogiSense’s DataFlows provide extra transactional control for your RESTful APIs, ensuring seamless integration and robust data handling.
Client Management vs API Management
Integrating through an API often requires extensive client-side management of data flow, order of operations, and error handling. For instance, when creating a new customer account, the client must ensure the correct sequence of account creation, contact information entry, contract setup, and product subscription. This high level of management and maintenance can be overwhelming, ensuring that all APIs commit in sequence, resulting in clients spending more time on management than integration.
Transactional Behaviors
Many RESTful APIs attempt to implement transaction methods, such as generating a transaction ID for a series of API calls. However, these basic approaches still leave clients with orchestration concerns. The ability to roll back is provided, but full transaction management is lacking.
Smart Operations & Why LogiSense Matters
LogiSense’s Transaction Control process, DataFlows, allows multiple REST API requests to be managed in a single server call. DataFlows handle transactional support, automatically inheriting required references, like a Customer ID when adding a contact to an account. Importantly, DataFlows are smart; they execute operations in the correct order, avoiding errors and simplifying client integration. It allows you to package multiple individual dependent API calls together in a single request similar to how you would structure multiple database transactions within a single commit or rollback.
By providing both API transactional control and reducing client management overhead, LogiSense delivers more value than other options. Our platform allows IT leaders to focus on integration rather than the complexities of transaction management, enhancing operational efficiency and reliability.
